Your patch uses `cl-find-if' which is a function. Until now, we used only macros from the cl-lib inside AUCTeX in order to have no other runtime dependencies. In general, I have no problem if we lift this limitation and use cl-lib functions as well -- the library is part of Emacs and why not use it. But before we do this, I'd like to hear from Keita and Tassilo what they think about this.
